All Chapters of Let Me Love You, Don: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

PIETROSince yesterday, there has been a feeling in my gut that Lucrezia is hiding something from me. I know Lucrezia too well, I know it when she’s fine or if something is bothering her. However, I had no idea what has been troubling her mind since she refuses to share it with me. I know that she is hiding something from me. For sure, something more had happened than the things that she had told me. I don’t think that Lucrezia would be this troubled just because she witnessed Tiburzio having a psychosis episode that was caused by his dementia. There is also no way that Lucrezia would be so upset until now just because of what happened between Tiburzio and his daughter in law. There is something that she is keeping from me. I wonder what that is.“I had already scheduled to visit you in your office today. I can’t believe that Pericles called right on time saying that you are inviting me to a meeting in your house,” Luigi spoke casually as if he had not been irresponsible to his job

LUCREZIAMy mother died when I was six so I only have a few memories of her. The only thing that helped me to remember her by were the old pictures she had that my father kept for her. In six years of living with my mother, how could she have taught me anything aside from how to read and write?My father told me that my mother died after a bullet pierced her heart. Her death was fast and swift something that no one had expected to happen. At one moment my mother was alive and perfectly well and then the next a loud shot just rang before she fell dead to the ground. Just like that she died before her daughters could even know the meaning of death. Since my mother’s death was associated with a gun, the police immediately got involved. Our family had to push the police away by reporting that mother’s death was an accident. The same story is also told to our family friends who had no idea about our illegal business. As if a gunshot that was aimed right on my mother’s chest was an acc

LUCREZIAMy chin trembled and my eyes slowly turned glassy upon hearing Pietro’s reply. As to not lose my face, I forced a smile and blinked my eyes to make the tears away just so I would save my dignity in front of him. I lowered my head, refusing to look at him as I pretended to be strong, that everything was okay, even if it was not.Pietro gulped and I saw how his hands itched to reach out to me, but he didn’t made any move to comfort me. He saw how hurt I was, he witnessed how his words had pained me. Yet, he chose to stood still and be firm with his words. He never loved me even once. That’s what he said. It made me realize how delusional I was to hope for the opposite of his words. I should have listened. Why did I have to make a fool out of me? Why do I have to risk everything for a game I’m losing right from the start?Why do I have to get hurt and hear this brutal truth first before I decide to do what is right?“Lucrezia—” Pietro whispered my name with pain in his voice.

LUCREZIAEven though I didn’t know who the woman was, I allowed her to enter the mansion since I had a feeling about her.I couldn’t point out what it was, but judging by her confidence and the way she held herself in front of me earlier, I think she was telling the truth when she said that she and Pietro knew each other. I don’t know who she is in Pietro’s life, if she was ever Pietro’s childhood friend at all. The only way to find out who she was and her connection to Pietro is by agreeing with what she wants so I could talk to her. She wanted me to let her in, and this is my territory. She’s the one putting herself in danger not the other way around. I sauntered inside the mansion with the maid and her following behind me. When we finally entered inside, I turned around to see her reaction.I could still remember what my reaction was when I entered this place for the first time. It was after I married Pietro, the day that this place had become my home. Even though I’ve seen man

LUCREZIAI froze on my place as I continued to eavesdrop on Pietro and Bianca’s conversation, trying to decipher the meaning of their words and get to the bottom of what they were actually talking about. Right now, there is nothing else more important than finding out the secrets that Pietro is hiding from me. Even though I was hurt by Pietro’s words, I decided to stay and continue on secretly listening to their conversation than to flee and protect myself from getting hurt even more in the expense of not finding out the truth. I know too well that the world doesn’t revolve around me, and I learned it the hard way. Today, what matters is the secret that I need to know and not the things that might happen to me once I found out that truth. Once I find out the real reason why Pietro couldn’t give his heart to me, I will be able to willingly let go of him without any regrets. It would also be able help me in the healing process, since I need to know and accept the truth before I cou
